ensure pay structures are fit for purpose

Pay modelling

Given the increased cost of living and living wage rates, it’s never been more important to review and update pay structures to ensure they’re fit for purpose. Salaries are the single biggest expenditure for most companies. It’s vital to strike a balance that works to attract and retain talent, while making financial sense.

We use our dedicated pay modelling software, built for complexity, to develop new pay and grading structures, creating a range of options based on current employee data.

Centralise salary and bonus information, accurately model the impact of increases and empower the appropriate managers to closely monitor reviews and recommend proposed changes within the appropriate governance arrangements. You can do it all with Zellis.
